Schneider Electric Pelco VideoXpert Missing Encryption Of Sensitive Information


Vendor: Schneider Electric SE
Product web page: https://www.pelco.com
Affected version: 2.0.41
                  1.14.7
                  1.12.105

Summary: VideoXpert is a video management solution designed for
scalability, fitting the needs surveillance operations of any size.
VideoXpert Ultimate can also aggregate other VideoXpert systems,
tying multiple video management systems into a single interface.

Desc: The software transmits sensitive data using double Base64 encoding
for the Cookie 'auth_token' in a communication channel that can be
sniffed by unauthorized actors or arbitrarely be read from the vxcore
log file directly using directory traversal attack resulting in
authentication bypass / session hijacking.

After a user logs in, the web server creates a Cookie: auth_token which has the following value:

Base64 decoding that becomes:

Again decoding, gives us result:
